Overview: Some organizations attempt to apply "Motivational programs" to boost employee morale. Many times HR professionals are asked create programs that will "Motivate" people. Companies that implement these types of programs usually get meager results within the short term. Why? "Carrot and stick" extrinsic approaches miss the heart of true motivation, the individual's needs. Over the long term, these superficial actions have a negative effect, as people's apathy and cynicism grows. On the other hand, organizations that really care about employee motivation have ways of helping managers create an environment where individual's fit and their objectives and values are in alignment.
